Question
Currently whilst extensive renovations are being effected to Musjidul Haraam, only those performing Umrah are allowed to perform Tawaaf in the Mataaf area on the ground floor. Those not performing Umrah are prohibited from making Tawaaf in the Mataaf. They have to make Tawaaf on the upper floors. The guards are able to distinguish people by their Ihraam garb. Only those with Ihraam are allowed in the Mataaf for Tawaaf. Will it be permissible to deceive the guards by donning Ihraam just for making Tawaaf?
Answer
It is not permissible to deceive the authorities by donning Ihraam for the purpose of making Tawaaf in the Mataaf area. They should go to the upper floors for Tawaaf. They have a valid reason for this rule.
